Years ago we did it with you $150 vs commodore v6 and a 800 dollar eBay nitrous kit 13.86 sec first pass 0n 75hp shot 13.19 on 100hp shot and on 125hp shot nitrous backfire and had to push it on the trailer, it only had a 8th of a tank of fuel we said we should put more in it but didn't, it surged on launch and bang lifted the plenum destroyed the intake pipe and blew the air box into 500 pieces.. I still wonder if it would have gone high 12s to this day..

I didn't like anything ford made after the XF series, so i'm really interested in this series. I love the Barra, such a killer. I did not know the Intech was so capable though! I'm considering selling my VN 5ltr and buying a XD/E or Cortina and then Barra swap later 😁. Really looking forward to this series.....and Trolvo 😁. Thanks Scotty!!
@1969Risky13 сағат бұрын
I see a recurring theme here Scotty, Dashmats!! You have to keep the AU Dashmat for the runs when this is finished. I've driven AU's back in the day as company cars and absolutely hated them, but given the years later I'll be interested to see how the build goes. Maybe you can auction off the AU Dashmat at the end of the series.
